I still believe there should be a committee established to decide who should be allowed to conceive children. Especially after this! Hip Hop Wired reports:
The state of Texas is getting a bad rap, thanks in part to a Dallas woman has been arrested on suspicion of trying to sell her newborn in the newspaper. Brittany Hill, 26, was arrested on Child Abandonment
charges Friday (June 22). She placed her 4-month-old son for sale for
the bargain price of $4,000, but was busted when a potential customer
saw the ad, and contacted police.
Hill was arrested after returning to the Shadow Ridge
apartments, where she left her child alone in a crib. Apartment
managers entered Hill's unit to collect rent, when they found the baby
all alone.
Neighbors who witnessed her arrest were disturbed by the turn of events. "I
just think it's a very sad situation, and I'm glad that the baby is
safe and away from those people," said Latonia Smith. "I saw her when
she was pregnant, and she just seemed to be very depressed, always alone
sitting on the stairway."
Another neighbor, Omara Muhammad, said that she would have helped
Hill had she asked. "I'd have been there for her if I had known all of
this," said Muhammad. "I'm not working; I'm a senior citizen. I'm home
24-7."
The infant is safe from further child abuse and, has been placed in the care of Child Protective Services.
